UB’s new recruitment management system is expected to go
live January 29th, 2007. Plans to link from UB’s main web
page, UB Business and MyUB are in progress. The project is very
close to completion, with only one last round of changes left to be
done by the vendor, PeopleAdmin. PeopleAdmin is adding a set of
qualifying questions that will pre-screen applicants. Training on
the system is scheduled to begin during the week of January 16th,
and an applicant tutorial is expected to be completed within a
similar timeframe. HR will provide additional training sessions on
as as needed basis.
The RMS team was charged with implementing an electronic
solution to automate and streamline the recruitment process for
faculty and staff. PeopleAdmin, the vendor that was chosen,
provides a software system designed to automate the recruitment
process used in Higher Education. Initially two software modules
were purchased:
- Applicant Tracking Module: This module focuses on
automating the job posting approval process and posting these
vacancies online. It also automates the collection, qualification,
tracking and distribution of employment applications and key
applicant EEOC data.
- Position Description Module: this module enables you to
track position descriptions online.
